• A resolution that is set too high. Solution: Try setting the resolution to 640 x 480 • Horizontal and /or vertical size not adjusted properly. Solution: Use monitor’s controls to adjust horizontal and vertical size. Monitors and video cards: What is Refresh Rate? What does it have to do with Resolution? Vertical Scanning Frequency describes how often the monitor paints a complete monitor screen or how many times the entire screen is redrawn per second. A refresh rate of 60Hz, for example, means the screen is drawn 60 times per second. Higher refresh rates mean less image flicker. Monitors and video cards: What are the advantages of a High Refresh Rate? The vertical refresh rate, sometimes called the vertical scanning frequency, describes how often the monitor paints a complete screen (or refreshes the screen). Vertical frequencies are measured in Hz. Higher vertical frequencies are associated with less flicker. Monitors and video cards: What does Native Resolution mean? LCD’s are mad
